In the evening hours of February 24th, an unexplained Facebook glitch caused hundreds of random Facebook messages to be re-routed to the unsuspecting inboxes of “a small number of users.” Thankfully for the rest of the Internet, one such inbox happened to belong to WSJ.com editor Zach Seward (who is, full disclosure, both a friend and Facebook friend). In a few hours, Seward had received 128 messages written by about 100 different users—all intended for other people. While Facebook deleted almost all of the messages from his account, the Journal has dutifully excerpted the missives. Sometimes violent, sometimes explicit, nearly always cause for some concern, this sampling seems to represent nothing less than the logical conclusion of Facebook.• “Just wanted to let you know it seems like your always on my mind these days. Sorry if thats creepy but what can I say."

• “I might kill you for this”

• “hey whats ur adress so i can send u my bat mitzvah invites?”

• “Until I start hearing some thank yous from you, I will be unable to give you rides home after dance”

• “I am EXTREMELY jealous of you”

• “leger nuage de malaise he oui, entre nous deux“

• “sooo mad at annabelle.”

• “we need to go to that place and get alcohol. ALSO GET TOGETHER AT MY HOUSE FRIDAY NIGHT. COME.”

• “no stalk but your formspring stuff has been coming up on my feed.”

• “look at [so-and-so's] wall and the convo she has on her statuses with TIM!”

• “The jealousy, the vibes, and what I hold dear to me made this whole weekend hard. The cuddling, truth or dare game, the texting back and forth for long periods of time, and the whispering back and forth for a long time got to me.”
